Caorle Italy: Hotel San Giorgio Caorle

Caorle (Venice, Italy) is known by more than half a century as a seaside resort, thanks to the beauty of its beaches, with centuries of history that are concentrated in the picturesque old town and tourist attractions during the summer.

The ancient name of the city was Caprulae (possibly because of the wild goats that grazed in this area, or in honour of pagan goddess Capris); Caorle was founded in the 1st century BC, as a Roman bench mark. Many archeological findings confirm that; for istance the sacrificial altar called "Ara Licovia" (from Licovi's Roman family), today kept in the cathedral.

Caorle gained importance when people from Concordia Sagittaria looked for a refuge because of the barbarian invasions. In that period, the Paleo-Christian church was built, some remains of which are today kept in the cathedral museum. In the 11th century the current cathedral was built, the see of many bishops. During the following centuries, Caorle became one of the nine important cities of the Republic of Venice; the witness of that are the many Istrian flagstones which composed some monuments in the city, and also the ancient structure of the city, with bridge and canals, like a little Venice. At the end of the Serenissima Republic and with the napoleonic invasions, Caorle went into decline; the diocese was moved to Chioggia and Caorle was attached to Patriarch of Venice; for a memory from ancient times Caorle still is an ecclesiastical titular see.

In the recent past, Caorle was an important strategic location in World War I, until the Italian Army started its counteroffensive from the Piave.
